About the Role
As a Robotics Technician (Mechatronics), you’ll be building the precise, complex, humanoid robots from component-level up to complete build. You’ll work with hardware engineering, systems integration, test, and advanced manufacturing to ensure our builds are executed accurately and efficiently, supporting a fast‑paced R&D environment where every day counts.
This is a unique opportunity to be an integral part of the AI robotics revolution.
What You’ll Do
Start: September 2026
Assembly
Build electro‑mechanical assemblies according to CAD, drawings, and work instructions.
Perform precise mechanical assembly using standard hand tools, adhesive applicators, crimp tools, torque wrenches, and labellers.
Route complex harnesses according to instructions provided, labelling and securing as defined.
Apply and record serial numbers to tracked assets
Bringup and test
Configure and test sensors, actuators and communication devices using command‑line tooling and electronics test equipment
Diagnose and repair faults using multimeters, oscilloscopes, and PCB repair equipment, liaising with engineering as necessary
Execute and monitor validation scripts
Compile source code from git/GitLab/GitHub
Build compute assemblies using ESD techniques
Repair, rework and upgrade through‑hole and surface‑mount PCBs
Make and repair electrical harnesses using crimp and labelling tools
Testing of assemblies using jigs, fixtures, electrical test equipment, and compute devices
Document findings and the results of tests
Culture and Quality
Adopt and support the team culture to drive collaboration and morale
Treat the tools and equipment with respect, maintaining them as necessary and reporting faults and damage
Engage in ongoing and regular activities to maintain the cleanliness and tidiness of the workshop
Be a High‑Speed Collaborator
Communicate clearly and effectively with fellow technicians, engineers, and leadership.
Adapt quickly to changing priorities—jump in wherever help is needed.
Contribute ideas to improve the speed, reliability, and quality of builds.
We’re Looking For
3+ years of experience in electromechanical assembly or prototype development
Proven ability to work with mechanical, electrical, and embedded systems—ideally in robotics, aerospace, or automotive.
Electronics and embedded system experience
Working in a Unix environment with command‑line shell/bash
Git/GitLab/GitHub use
Strong attention to detail and a deep sense of build quality and safety.
Ability to read CAD, mechanical drawings, and wiring diagrams
Hands‑on experience with common tools, fixtures, soldering, torqueing, etc.
You move fast, stay organized, and take pride in solving problems in real time.
Comfortable working in a fluid, high‑urgency environment with evolving designs and short timelines.
Nice‑to‑haves
Candidates may benefit from additional experience in:
Experience in surface‑mount and through‑hole PCB rework
Control and diagnostics with ROS
What We Offer
Competitive equity: stock options with meaningful upside as we scale.
30+ days time off, including 23 days annual leave, all UK bank holidays, and additional company closure days (including Christmas–New Year shutdown).
Private healthcare, including virtual and in‑person care.
Pension scheme with 8% total contribution (5% employee, 3% employer) on full earnings.
Free daily breakfast, catered lunch, and snacks in‑office.
Work at the frontier – collaborate daily with world‑class engineers, researchers, and product experts building the next generation of AI and humanoid robotics.
Real ownership – direct access to founding leadership, meaningful input on product direction, and the ability to drive key initiatives from day one.
